‘We are all God’s Children’: Cebu’s inmates dance for Pope Francis

Inmates at the Cebu Provincial Detention and Rehabilitation Center on Thursday held a tribute for Pope Francis' visit with their patented dance numbers.

 

State-run Philippine Information Agency said the inmates danced to Michael Jackson's 1980s hit "Thriller."

 

Jackson's song was their first dance hit, with the YouTube vide of their number earning them international fame.

But the main number was "We are all God's Children," the official theme song of the Pope's Philippine visit.

 

A photo by the Cebu provincial government showed the inmates dancing to the song, with a large photo of Pope Francis in the background.
